This is an ad for a spool that is no longer in use.
This reel has served me well for a number of years. The only caution is to avoid dropping the reel because it is prone to dents. This is a good fly reel to have on hand as a backup or as a first reel.
If you're new to fly fishing, the distinction between selling just the reel and selling the spool and reel can be perplexing, but it's a common occurrence in the fly fishing industry.
This is solely for the purpose of the spool.
Selected User Reviews For Echo Ion Reel
This spool is for a full sinking line, while the other spool I have for this reel is for a one-strand sinking line. It was given to me with a Spey setup. I'm going to get a new spool for my 6wt Echo rod and another for a regular floating fly line. Reel will be capable of performing any task I require.
If you don't handle the reel gently, light aluminum will always cause problems. I have a variety of sizes and duplicates (fish from the same family). For skagit, these are my go-to reels.
This irritates me greatly. This isn't a reel, so don't call it that. I'm now the proud owner of a spool of thread. What will I do with just a spool of yarn? I'm also having trouble finding the drag knob on the internet. If you're looking for a reel, don't waste your time.
a high-quality spare spool One spool will be set up with floating line, while the other will be set up with sinking line.
Excelente.
I'm sure I'm not the only one who did this, but when I first went to install the new spool, I thought I had to completely unscrew the cap. I was about to toss them both and get something else, but it turns out you don't have to unscrew it. Simply loosen the screw until the spool comes free. whew. I was just thinking about the cap and the o-ring. In the river, a ring has dropped. br>br>I ordered the '8/9' one, thinking it was for the ION reel marked '8/10,' which it was. br>br>Right now, Cabelas has the '8/10' on sale for 79 dollars. However, there are no spools to be found.
I have a few of these reels because they are so good for the money.
There's a lot of backing capacity on this spool.
